    Aeromarine pockets

    I had a Thedi version and while the patch pockets look really cool, they are indeed pretty useless. Half a pair of gloves fit while the other half flops out, and I would just use mine for car keys and even then with my small hands, found it hard to dig anything out. A 2nd Thedi shawl variation...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Nick I love Vans but I have to say that is total brand commitment right there. I sure hope they gave you some free pairs after that one. I wish they were still made in the USA. They are not the same quality they used to be since they stopped making them in the USA back in the late 90's. Mine...

    Aeromarine pockets

    Slash pockets are nice since those patch packets are pretty useless for anything except a small cell phone or car keys.

    New jacket at Aero

    I like it also. Next time you feel the urge to splurge, order one up. Seriously. You can pull it off. It may even be cool with suede instead of smooth leather.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    @dudewuttheheck why are you not that pleased with the waxed flesh on the Wesco's? I ask because I have a pair of Wesco boots ordered in burgundy waxed. Just curious as I have never seen the waxed flesh in person and just kind of winged it.

    Field Leathers modded Idaho in Brown Shinki

    Sorry, but I am mixing up pigment vs semi-aniline so my bad. I should have checked my facts before posting. I prefer smoother looking leathers with a more uniform finish that don't mark too easily like aniline can.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The seller probably had a friend ramp up the bidding to get others to bid higher and it backfired. Typical on ebay.

    Field Leathers modded Idaho in Brown Shinki

    Looks great. I prefer a pigment finish to aniline, so in my eyes, I think you received a perfect jacket.

    Dating an Open Road !

    I know for a fact it is earlier than 1966 since that is when my grandfather moved from Rosetown Sask and that hat was purchased there. So between then and the mid fifties when he moved there with my grandmother and mom. That is all I know. Too bad these are not overly desirable since I'd like...

    Dating an Open Road !

    Thanks Bowen. No dates on the back of the band. Band is still soft and pliable. No labels either, just what appears a stuck on label that has a 7 on it.

    Dating an Open Road !

    I have what I think is a Stetson Open Road. This is my grandfather's old hat which has been kicking around since he died in the early 80's. Is anyone able to confirm the date? I am thinking late 1950s to mid 1960s. Also, what are these worth and is it worthwhile for me to get it cleaned and...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    @Robbie79 that is a cool jacket. The front pocket detail is fantastic and I really like the colour you chose for the lining. Let's see a photograph of the back.

    Freewheelers La Brea Rude Black

    Thanks. So, I was right that the suede one is a Y2. Do you know the model name? I think I will try and hunt one down at some point.

    Freewheelers La Brea Rude Black

    It was the Double Helix I was asking about. Nice jacket. I tried that jacket on before and I had to bump up to a 42 also. I have the same Rainbow Country jacket as you but in brown and a 40 fits me fine but just a hair on the large side. Too bad I just bought a Freewheelers Switchyard or I'd...
